| Thrown down through the arms of sleep
|
| She fell through the ivory morning
|
| Deep into the waters
|
| Of the one she called love
|
| She paled in the wake
|
| Of what some call a dream
|
| But, you cannot know a dream
|
| Till you’ve known the nightmare
|
| When I stood with you against the storm
|
| And I tried once again
|
| Well, I said, «I'd like to leave you
|
| With something warm»
|
| How many times
|
| Drowning in the sea
|
| Drowning
|
| That was when the dream took her prisoner
|
| And she knew the dream was over
|
| But, the nightmare was not over
|
| Still some call that a dream
|
| The nightmare… the nightmare
|
| Well, you cannot know a dream
|
| When you turn away
|
| You don’t know
|
| You’ll never care
|
| The night is not your friend
|
| And you have not had her
|
| And when the nightmare ends
|
| But, you never understand
|
| When you’re gone
|
| She wakes up calling out
|
| Oh, calling out
|
| As children may cry as she will
|
| Anytime, oh, anywhere
|
| Blinded by the light of the day
|
| She has known the nightmare
|
| So about the moon and her sisters
|
| How dare he take them prisoner
|
| Well, if she had flung out her heart against him
|
| Then in all of her wisdom
|
| Oh, well that was a mystery
|
| That was when the dream took her prisoner
|
| And she knew the dream was over
|
| But the nightmare was not over
|
| Somewhere in her ancient ways
|
| She walks through the night
|
| And then she tries to get through the day
|
| Some will never know
|
| Or share any kind of dream
|
| The nightmare
|
| This is not the world
|
| This is not the world
|
| This is not the world
|
| The nightmare
|
| She wants him to fight… anytime, anywhere
|
| She wants him to stand up
|
| She wants him to win
|
| This is not the world
|
| This is not the world
|
| This is not the real world
|
| Blinded by the light of the day
|
| Blinded by the light
|
| She was blinded by the light of the day
|
| Blinded by the day |
